Uninstalling the product on z/OS

Use IBM® Installation Manager to uninstall copies of the product code for WebSphere® Application Server for z/OS®, DMZ Secure Proxy Server for IBM WebSphere Application Server for z/OS, Web Server Plug-ins for IBM WebSphere Application Server for z/OS, or IBM HTTP Server for WebSphere Application Server for z/OS.

Before you begin

Make sure that you no longer need this particular copy of the product code.

Procedure

  1. Mount the file system containing the product code to be uninstalled at the installation location that Installation Manager used to install it.
  2. Log in to the Unix System Services shell under the Installation Manager user ID, and change the directory to the eclipse/tools subdirectory of the Installation Manager binaries location.
    For example:
    cd /InstallationManager/bin/eclipse/tools
  3. Invoke the Installation Manager uninstall command to perform the product uninstallation.
    imcl uninstall package_ID
      -installationDirectory installation_location
    
    For example:
    imcl uninstall com.ibm.websphere.zOS.v80
      -installationDirectory /usr/lpp/zWebSphere/V8R0

    Product uninstallation is complete when the Installation Manager completes without error messages. Logs for the uninstallation can be found in the logs subdirectory of the Installation Manager runtime data location.

  4. When product uninstallation is complete, delete any remaining files from the product location.
